Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:
TEST ANIMALS
- Diet (e.g. ad libitum): ad libium
- Water (e.g. ad libitum): ad libitum
- Weight: Between 200 and 300 g

Administration / exposure

Route of administration:
inhalation: vapour
Type of inhalation exposure:
not specified
Vehicle:
not specified
Details on inhalation exposure:
Sprague-Dawley albino rats, weighing between 200 and 300 g, are exposed to substantially saturated vapor for 6 hours. The vapor is produced by enclosing approximately 100 g of the test material in a sealed 100 to 151-liter animal chamber for approximately 18 hours (static conditions). A mixing fan periodically agitates the chamber atmosphere to aid in distribution of the vapor. Oxygen is added, as needed, for static exposures to maintain a chamber oxygen content of approximately 20%. If deaths occur, exposure times are varied to determine an LT50. Five males and 5 females are included for each exposure period.
Analytical verification of test atmosphere concentrations:
not specified
Duration of exposure:
6 h
Concentrations:
saturated vapor
No. of animals per sex per dose:
5 males and 5 females
Control animals:
not specified

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: expert judgment
Conclusions:
Inhalation, Rat; Substantially Saturated Vapor (Static):
Males: 6.0 hours killed 0 of 5.
Females: 6.0 hours killed 0 of 5.
Executive summary:

Exposure to a statically-generated, substantially saturated vapor produced no deaths of male and female rats during or following the 6-hour test. There were no signs of toxicity evident and no remarkable gross lesions were evident at necropsy.
